Oh my. The fight against Barack Obama on abortion has officially begun. The Christian Defense Coalition, who are known to shock folks from time to time, have come up with a new campaign called: “Barack Obama: The Abortion President”. They are going to make clear that Obama wants taxpayers to foot the bill on abortions. They are also going to lay bare his record on abortion. They’ll conduct a news conference Tuesday in front of the Hart Senate Office Building where Obama’s Senate office is located. Look at the picture they are unveiling. Pretty shocking. Click here. Read a statement below from Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney, Director of the Christian Defense Coalition: "Senator Obama talks about bringing hope, faith and change to American politics. We now see this is all just political 'doublespeak.' One of his top priorities as President would be protecting abortion rights and even expanding them. If elected, Senator Obama would become 'The Abortion President,' with the most extremist policies on abortion of any President in history. "Senator Obama's views on abortion are so radical that he even wants American citizens to pay for them. This would include Catholics, Evangelicals and all people of faith. He would also expand abortion rights through his passionate support of The Freedom of Choice Act. "The Christian Defense Coalition will be working diligently over the next 5 months before the November elections to educate people of faith, especially Catholics, that Barack Obama wants them to pay for abortions. This is not a candidate who is concerned about social justice, hope and equality. Rather, this is candidate who will continue the violence and pain of abortion and refuse to end this tragic war against America's women and children." Obama campaign spokesman Hari Sevugan sent out the following statement: “Barack Obama understands that the best way to reduce the need for abortions is to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies. He is committed to commonsense solutions to achieve that objective and to changing the tone of the discourse which for too long has devolved into false and negative attacks such as this that do nothing to accomplish that goal” Folks, The Brody File has been telling you this sort of effort was coming. Some of these pro-life groups look at the polling and find that many Americans either think Obama is either pro-life or they’re not sure. This campaign is an attempt to set the record straight. Don't think for a minute this is one 'fringe" group. This effort represents the broader feelings with many conservative Evangelical groups. This is Obama’s challenge with Evangelicals. He can talk about the social justice issues all he wants and yes, it resonates to a certain extent but unless he moves on abortion (not likely) he’ll have a problem. If he shows some support for parental notification laws or the annual fetal pain bill that moves through Congress then that will help insulate him to a degree on the extremist abortion tag. The bigger issue here for the Obama campaign is just how widespread and vocal pro-life groups may end up being on this issue. Obama can’t afford the extreme liberal tag and if these groups continue to pound home the abortion theme, it doesn’t fit the narrative that Obama needs to be successful.

That reminded me that I saw a headline on the newsstand the other day about some black churches being against Obama because of the abortion issue. Pro-life black pastors wary of Obama Views clash on abortion Julia Duin (Contact) Friday, July 4, 2008 Conservative black pastors nationwide are caught between irreconcilable opposites - congregations that overwhelmingly favor Sen. Barack Obama versus their personal doubts about the Illinois Democrat's politics, particularly on abortion. "It's a theological contradiction, from the Christian perspective, to be excited about Obama," said the Rev. Levon Yuille, pastor of the 100-member Bible Church in Ypsilanti, Mich. "Very few black pastors have problems supporting Obama because they are fixated on this race thing." "The congregations are pro-Obama. My congregation is saying Obama is the lesser of two evils," said Bishop Harry Jackson, pastor of Hope Christian Church in Beltsville, a 3,000-member majority black congregation. "When I say that on third-term abortions, Obama has no conscience, they say [Sen. John] McCain and [Sen.] Hillary [Rodham Clinton] weren't great examples of morality either." The Rev. John W. Stephenson, pastor of Heirs Covenant Church, a 300-member church in West Chester, Ohio, said he has to "educate" his members regularly. "People say, 'This is an opportunity that will never come again for our people,' " he said. "I say, 'Yes, we are African-Americans, but we are also Christians." Several pastors interviewed said they have had to work overtime to tutor their flocks about Mr. Obama's views, especially on abortion, which has disproportionately affected blacks. According to the Guttmacher Institute, a reproductive health research group, black abortion rates are three times that of whites and twice that of Hispanics. As an Illinois state senator, Mr. Obama voted against the Illinois Born Alive Infants Protection Act, a bill that protected babies who survive abortions. Last year, the senator condemned the Supreme Court's ban on partial-birth abortion. "Obama I am afraid of," said the Rev. Kim Daniels, pastor of the 400-member Spoken Word Ministries in inner-city Jacksonville, Fla. "I have a problem of people voting for him because he is black. Some of our African-American preachers are so excited to see someone who looks like them even though they are not getting someone who believes like them. "But my life as a black person does not mean more than my life as a believer. I am voting for that baby that never gets to vote," she said.

Don't vote; stay home; pray without ceasing for deliverance from this Godless government. PAYING them to murder our children is surely taking the mark of the beast. And SURELY judgment is coming and will begin at the house of God for those who are wearing the wrong mark. What goes around, comes around.

I talked to black people who want to vote for Obama. I got the best response to date when I explained that Obama is a front for the Zionists, Wall Street and the Bilderbergers who want to bring back SLAVERY. Their goal has been to enslvae the American people ever since they passed the Federal Reserve Acr in 1913.
Good job, Horse. Their goal has been to enslave the American people ever since they passed the Federal Reserve Act in 1913. It's gone on longer than that. Our whole history, black and white, has been one of slavery. [Genesis 15:13-14/Galatians 3:16-29] www.revisionisthistory.org/forgottenslaves.html www.blacksandjews.com/Jews_and_Slavery.html If the truth be known, Jews in America are in bondage as well, to Talmudic lies. www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Gal/Gal004.html#25 / www.blueletterbible.org/tsk_b/Gal/4/25.html We've put in our 400 years, maybe it's time for deliverance. Some people think GWB is the last president and the end of the road for the "republic": thefinalphaseforum.invisi...sion/index.php/t1818.html This rather coincides with this: A secret meeting of Congress discusses immanent martial law

"Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were shot on a Friday, both were shot in the head from behind and both were assassinated by Southerners. Lincoln’s secretary was named Kennedy and Kennedy’s secretary was named Lincoln. Both had wives who lost children while living in the White House. Both had successors who were Southerners named Johnson. (Both had a vice president named Johnson.) The assassins in each case were known by three names comprised of fifteen letters. John Wilkes Booth was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald was born in 1939. Booth ran from the theater where he shot the president and was caught in a warehouse. Oswald ran from a warehouse and was caught in a theater. Booth and Oswald were both killed before they could stand trial." Interesting.
Isn't it though? Looks as if there are too many 'peculiarities' to be a massive coincidence, imo. ;-)

I saw it before on LP, but forgot about that. Probably cuz of the chemtrails. I believe in God. I hope I'm not on the list for the concentration camps. I heard that something like 85% of the things we worry about are unfounded. That's good. Now it's that 15% I'm worried about.
